Rodger the diver: good guy with bad luck

Roger Pryatel d.b.a. Southshore Diving has served North East Ohio marinas and boat owners for more than 30 years providing underwater; welding, hull cleaning, and jewelry/cell phones/other misc. valuables recovery services.

In May the home he resided and grew up in at 1184 East 61st Street caught fire and due to challenging finances, he ceased homeowners insurance coverage about 2 years ago. Extensive damage renders the home uninhabitable and he is now living in undesirable conditions.

Rodger suffered extensive burns during the fire, required hospitalization for more than 2 weeks and was advised not to dive for another 8 weeks. He remains in much pain and needs prescribed medication to partially function. Depression is among his greatest challenges.

Please help me in my goal to raise $50K. Conceptually I hope to inspire 100 persons at $500 each. Of course, any donation more or less will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your consideration and support,

Paul Ciepiel
